After Good Friday, Jimmy could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Nia had never agreed to Jimmy coming to her house before, probably because her family members had some objections.
This time he came here, and his worries were almost settled. Jimmy opened the safe and took out a small box. This was a ring he secretly selected when he went shopping with Nia. It had never been used before, but now it seems It's almost time to use it.
Jimmy comes to the Counter-Terrorism Bureau again, and Caitlin, like Watson, will stay in the office as long as there is nothing to do.
Jimmy: "Caitlin, good morning. Is there any news from DC in the past two days?"
Caitlin frowned and looked at Jimmy, "No, what are you in such a hurry for?"
Jimmy: "I'm going back to work, I just don't want to be investigated while I'm at work."
Caitlin: "Do your business normally, go ahead and I'll let you know."
Jimmy nodded, turned around and was about to leave, then turned back, "Caitlin, there's one more thing. I need a computer that can connect to the bureau's database, and my account. It's been dormant before, and I've never opened it. Permissions.”
Caitlin looked confused: "What?"
Jimmy nodded: "I went into hibernation after training camp and never returned to Langley."
Caitlin shook her head: "No, this doesn't comply with the process. Who made the assessment and task arrangements for you?"
Jimmy: "My immediate boss at the time, Kodesky."
Caitlin: "I understand. I will investigate. You go back first."
Jimmy nodded, turned and left Caitlin's office. It was Tom's suggestion to ask Caitlin for an account. As a "dead man", Tom could no longer get these officially used things for Jimmy. If he was not "dead", he could do a lot, and now Trouble.
In fact, Jimmy lacks too many things now. He basically doesn't understand the inside of the CIA at all. Looking for Caitlin to get an account is not only for his own use, but also to send a message that Jimmy is completely unfamiliar with the inside of the CIA. He is just an action. personnel, so that if you accidentally reveal your flaws in the future, you will have a reason to fool them.
Tell Caitlin in advance, and someone will take the blame. Although this trick may not work, it is already the best way Jimmy has considered. He can't force Tom to learn everything in detail. If Tom was interested in teaching him, he would have taken action long ago. In fact, Jimmy feels that Tom is not in the right state now and is very lack of energy. It seems that the previous revenge actions have severely overdrawn his energy.
After thinking about it, Jimmy finally decided to go to work. He called Hughes and packed up for work the next day.
Jimmy returned to his office. He had been away for more than two months. His desk had not been moved because it had been tidied up before leaving. In addition to the monitor and folders on the desk, the relevant documents were placed in drawers and boxes under the desk. .
Mahone and Felicia were not in the office, and looking at the things on their desks, it seemed that they had not been to the office for a few days and were all dusty.
Jimmy frowned and thought for a moment, then took out his mobile phone and dialed Mahone's number directly.
Mahone: "Jimmy, what's the matter?"
Jimmy: "Ah, I came back to work today and saw that none of you were in the office, so I called and asked. Have you been on a business trip? It seems that you haven't come to the office for some days."
Ma Hong: "Yes, you go to Hughes to arrange the task first. We won't go back recently."
Jimmy: "What case? How can I help?"
Ma Hong: "It's nothing. I don't need it for the time being. You can go find Hughes first."
Jimmy: "OK, please stay safe when you go out. Goodbye."
Jimmy hung up the phone, first cleaned the dust on the table, then laid out his information, and then left the office and came to Hughes' office.
Jimmy knocked on the door and walked in, "Hughes, I'm back to work."
Hughes nodded, "How is it?"
Jimmy: "It should be fine."
Hughes: "That's good. Mahone and the others are temporarily seconded by the Chicago office. You will still be the agent of the homicide team for the time being."
Jimmy: "What's going on over there? Why did they transfer both of them back?"
Hughes: "There was a prison breakout at a state prison there, and some of the people who escaped were arrested by Mahone before, so the Chicago office hopes that he will handle it."
Jimmy pouted. Are you kidding me? Which FBI office would feel that its own people are unqualified and need to transfer back people who have been transferred from other offices? This reason is really too perfunctory.
Jimmy goes to Dallas for special reasons. It's not that there are no agents in Dallas. Obviously, Mahone and the others were the same. They must have other things to do and found this reason.
Jimmy: "Okay, are there any recent cases?"
Hughes: "The previous one has been forwarded to the Brooklyn Queens Field Office. Just wait. I'll contact Agent Ryan Phillips. If he has any extra cases, I'll forward one to you first."
Jimmy: "OK, then I'll go back."
Jimmy left Hughes' office and returned to his own office. While he was still free, he took all the tea sets and cleaned them, made himself a pot of tea, and then turned on the computer to check the case.
Sure enough, all the cases are followed by the assigned detectives. There are no free cases for the time being. Just wait, working on a case will just change your way of thinking. I have done things a bit too much recently, and my whole person has actually been affected a lot, but it has not been obvious yet.
The phone rang and Jimmy answered, "Hi Ryan, long time no contact, how are you?"
Ryan: "Jimmy, everything is fine with me. How about you? Are you back from your business trip?"
Jimmy: "Well, I just got to work today. Did you get a call from Hughes?"
Ryan: "Well, the cases here are all in progress. Do you think you should take over them directly or wait for new cases to follow?"
Jimmy: "How's the progress? How about I go over to your place?"
Ryan: "Then come on, I haven't seen you for a long time."
Jimmy: "Okay, I'll leave now."
Jimmy took out his car key from the drawer, put on his suit and went downstairs. The car had not been driven for a long time, and Jimmy was worried that the car would not start, so he did not leave his car key upstairs.
When Jimmy went to the underground parking lot and saw the matching car, he gave up immediately. The tires were almost flat.
Driving his CLS, Jimmy came all the way to the Queens Field Office. After showing his ID, Jimmy went directly upstairs to Ryan's office.
Ryan saw Jimmy and stood up to welcome Jimmy: "Jimmy, you disappeared for a long time. What did you do?"
Jimmy: "I was temporarily seconded to Dallas for a while and just came back. How is it? I have assigned you all the recent cases. Are you busy now?"
Ryan: "Fortunately, please take a look at the case."
Jimmy took the dossier from Ryan's hand, glanced at it and frowned, "Is New York so chaotic lately?"
Ryan nodded: "Several cases are cases of homeless people dying. They are all now with the NYPD. We have investigated two cases. They are completely unrelated. Basically, they are independent cases."
Jimmy: "Have you made a map of this case?"
Ryan nodded, "We haven't made one, but the NYPD has made maps of several cases before, but no connections were found."
Jimmy: "This case reminds me of a serial killer case I handled before, but the murderer was already dead. Based on the arrest at the scene and the search at home, the physical evidence confirmed the identity of the murderer. I will not take this case now. , go back and look for information to confirm."
Ryan: "You think there's a connection?"
Jimmy: "Not sure. That case has been a long time ago. If it was a copycat crime, it should have appeared long ago."
Jimmy frowned and returned the file to Ryan, "Speaking of which, has anything big happened in New York in the past two months?"
Ryan shook his head: "There are no real big things, but there is no shortage of small and random cases. The biggest case is probably the bank robbery. It happened in the Bronx. The robber ran away after spotting the teller and calling the police. Haven't caught it yet. The good news is the bank didn't lose much money, just a few thousand dollars."
Jimmy laughed out loud: "What are these people thinking? Are there any clues?"
Ryan: "There is only surveillance, and the robber protection is very complete. We only know that he is a black man, and there are no other clues. The case has been shelved."
Jimmy: "Okay, this is the only way this case can go. Then I'll go back and check the information first. Goodbye, Ryan."
Jimmy stretched out his arms and hugged Ryan, then turned and left the office.
Jimmy drove back to his Manhattan office, really thinking about the case he just saw on the way.
He had handled a case before, in which a man was possessed by an evil spirit. He would go out at night and shoot homeless people to feed the evil spirit.
After he handled the case, he reported it to Hughes. After that, Hughes said that he had found professionals to handle it, but there was no further follow-up.
The difference between this case and the last one is that the murder methods of several cases recorded in the file are different. Except that the victims are all homeless people, there is basically nothing similar. It just reminds Jimmy of the previous cases, at least. Want to confirm if it is related.
If it is really related to the previous case, then ordinary detectives will be completely unable to figure it out.
Jimmy came to Hughes' office: "Hughes, do you remember the serial killer case I handled before? A man shot a homeless man at night, that unusual incident."
Hughes frowned and thought for a while, then nodded: "I have an impression, what's wrong?"
Jimmy: "There are many cases of homeless people being killed in Ryan. The death methods are different. It doesn't look like a copycat crime, but I still want to confirm. Did the person you found follow up on the previous case?"
Hughes: "You go back first."
Jimmy nodded and turned back to the office. He called the vehicle management department and asked them to pack up his car. It had not been driven for two or three months and he should check it more or less. If he always drives his own car, if something goes wrong, he will be very distressed. It's your turn.
In addition, the current matching car is a normal matching car. The previous matching car with bulletproof doors was recycled after the attack and later left New York, so I haven't reapplied yet.
Speaking of which, could he apply for another police car with bulletproof doors? Jimmy thought about it, got up and walked to the administrative department, still looking for Tim Dunn.
Jimmy knocked on Dunn's office door and looked inside with a smile. Dunn seemed to be typing a report on the computer, and his fingers kept moving: "Please come in."
Jimmy: "Hi, Dunn."
Dunn stopped and looked at Jimmy: "Jimmy, when did you come back?"
Jimmy: "I just came back and went to work today. Dunn, the car you gave me last time was shot. Have you repaired it?"
Dunn: "Wait a minute, let me take a look. That car has been assigned."
Jimmy was also helpless. He had been away for almost three months, so the car couldn't be waiting for him all the time. "So is there anything else now? It has police lights, sirens, radios, and bulletproof doors."
Dunn: "You're asking too much, Jimmy. We don't have many bulletproof vehicles now."
Jimmy: "There must be more. By the way, can't we all be equipped with bulletproof doors? My girlfriend said that the police cars in their police station have started to be renovated, and all the police cars will be replaced with bulletproof doors in the next two years."
Dunn: "There is an update plan, but it has not covered everything. New cars coming later will be modified, and additional in-car first aid kits will be added."
Jimmy: "When will it arrive? If it's the nearest one, leave one for me."
Dunn sighed, "Okay, okay, just wait a few more days and I'll leave one for you when the new car arrives. Don't worry, I'll definitely replace it later."
Jimmy: "Thanks, I'll buy you a drink later. I'm going back."
Jimmy thanked him and left Tim Dunn's office.
Back in the office, Hughes was already sitting on the sofa. Jimmy: "Hughes, are there any results?"
Hughes stood up: "Wait in the office after get off work tonight and I will take you to a place."
Jimmy: "No problem."
Hughes turned and left the office when Jimmy nodded.
Now is not the time to blindly ask about the destination. Judging from Hughes's attitude, it seems that there is something wrong, but I don't know if it is a problem with the new case or the previous one that has not been dealt with completely.
Jimmy was really a little confused. He didn't know where he went at night. He opened the drawer and took out the spare half box of .44 Magnum. He took a small ziplock bag for evidence and put the bullet in it. At night Carry it as a backup.
If it’s a new case, it’s okay. If it’s an old case that hasn’t been dealt with completely, it’s really possible that you need to use the 1875 revolver sent by Roland. I usually don’t carry .44 Magnum spare bullets with me. It takes up too much. place.
When he got off work, Jimmy went downstairs to find a food truck, bought a few tacos, and packed them back to the office to make a meal in advance. It wasn't until after 8 o'clock that Hughes called Jimmy to go downstairs to the parking lot.
